Kommunetoppen i Andøy - Skrivartinden fra Forfjorddalen (15.06.2017)

What a day to pick... rain, wind and very little visibility. First, I redecided and went for a snack and to get some food for the trip, further along the road. At Dragsnes there was a cafe and a motel.
Second try, still pouring down, and lots of wind. But I decided to try. The wind mainly from behind, or one side. Luckily it wasn't colder than 10-12 C at start.

The valley is very wet, but soft for feet. I walked on steady, more or less direct route to the top. At the top, some scrambling. Due to the wet stones and the wind that came on hard sometimes made it a bit unpleasant. The last 50-100 meters one had to be careful. Finally I was at the top. No visibility. But luckily as I started going down it cleared a little for some minutes.
Back down at the 500 masl the visibility was better.
I had noticed a lot of mooseshit everywhere, and in the forest I finally met, first two, then at least one moose. Big, majestic animals. A lot of birds and also the cocoo could be heard.
Soaking wet but happy back at the car after 3 h 40 min aprox.
